Prada F/W 2011.12 : Antonia, Dorte, Frida, Julia, Kelly & Ondria by Steven Meisel

[cologne_rocks]

I have to concur helmut.newton. Both Kelly and Antonia possess youthful yet witty charisma while their 'phyisical beauty' is quite the opposite with sculptural, slightly quaint and prominent characteristics (Annto not that prominent, but still). Those two make it seem smart and nonchalant - And combined with the shrill make-up, this shot really has a sense of irony. Great job!
I don't find the other pairing that brilliant, to be honest.

Frida!!!!!!
Never expected she will be there, she never walked for the show
What a surprise!!!!!
But the girl next to her outshines her

 

[alonsoJonathan]

Frida should've this by her self! she is just great for this,such a perfect surprise!

This campaign is gorgeous. The Meisel we all knew and loved for Prada is finally back. This reminds me so much of the late 90s/early 00s Prada campaigns.

I don't understand the justification of how something is considered aesthetically good based on the fact that it resembles a different era (especially the 90's). It's just something I've noticed far too often on tFS.

 

[freud]

^That is truly an interesting an valid objection.

I think it may have to do with some members having actually experienced the 90s photographs, fashion and all and others are just drawn to that time as some are drawn to the glamourous 30s or the swinging 60s, you name them times. The now has so many faces and combines old with new that it lacks uniqueness as these gone days. Maybe that's it?

 

[Unknownpleasures]

I can pretend Frida doesn't exist and enjoy the rest of the pictures.
Kelly looks great, never thought I would see her getting this.
Seems like there's at least one girl from the tops NY agencies in this,no? (IMG,Ford,Marilyn)
Ondria is really cute too but I don't remember that look from the show?
Anyway I hope the rest is just as pretty and lovely.

yes can someone plz tell us who they are?
also who is the one that said that? show your self!!

 

[FelipeV]

I think the alien girl is obvious (Kelly Mittendorf), about the hated i heard that the campaign was re-shooted, so she's probably isn't in the ad.

I love the campaign, everything looks very smooth. I was expecting to see Colinne Michaelis

 

[scratchBOOK]

only Ondria that work at this campaign tbh

obv kelly and frida duh

 

[Sigren]

I do not like Kelly one bit. She does not suit Prada at all.
My favourite is definitely Ondria, so beautiful. And I never would of expected Frida to be in the campaign, but oh well.

 

[zacatecas570]

So none of this girls walked the show???

 

[ZFashionBlog]

Not one of my favorite Prada campaigns.
Love the dresses though!

So far all F/W campaigns have been rather disappointing....

 

[MON]

This is beautiful! Simple, classy and beautiful!

 

[hysteria]

It turned out much better than I was expecting after such a horrible collection. I like the styling and the soft background suits the collection perfectly. Maybe some people find it boring, but I do like it. I am not sure about the cast, though. Frida was a big surprise to me, I mean, she has not even walked for Prada, and I thought Steven does not like her, but well, she does not look so bad, simply the other girls outshine her. I am really happy for Antonia and Kelly, both girls have so much potential.

 

[EnVogueLove]

So is this the whole casting?

 

[tanii94]

Yup.^

So happy for Frida!

 

[TheChosen1]

This is pretty boring but the casting is superb!
I like the shot with Frida most.

 

[Miss Dalloway]

What a fantastic campaign! Can't wait to see this in print, the casting is simply wonderful.

**EDIT**

Kelly is by far the standout. I think she would have been able to carry this OG. However, that said, Ondria is perfect for the collection

Frida and Antona are the least impressive to me: Frida's pose is awkward, while Antonia's expression just doesn't quite fit right.
